FORM 990, PAGE 6, PART VI, LINE 11B THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION OF ST. CLAIR COUNTY'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES MEET THE LAST TUESDAY OF EACH CALENDAR QUARTER AT A MINIMUM. THE BUSINESS AGENDA OF THESE BOARD MEETINGS INCLUDE A REVIEW OF INTERNAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND INVESTMENT REPORTS THAT HAVE BEEN REVIEWED AND ACCEPTED BY ITS FINANCE AND INVESTMENT COMMITTEE AT ONE OF THEIR MONTHLY MEETINGS. ANNUALLY, AT THE RECOMMENDATION OF ITS AUDIT COMMITTEE, THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES ENGAGE THE SERVICES OF AN INDEPENDENT AUDITING FIRM TO PERFORM AN AUDIT OF ITS FINANCIAL RECORDS AND ISSUE AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE CALENDAR YEAR. ADDITIONALLY, AS PART OF THE ENGAGEMENT, THE AUDITING FIRM IS HIRED TO DRAFT THE ANNUAL FORM 990 FOR THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION OF ST. CLAIR COUNTY AND ITS SUPPORTING ORGANIZATIONS, THE COMMUNITY RENAISSANCE FUND AND BLUE WATER LAND FUND, INC.; HOWEVER, THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION STAFF ARE SIGNIFICANTLY INVOLVED IN THIS PROCESS. MEMBERSHIP ON BOTH THE AUDIT COMMITTEE AND THE FINANCE AND INVESTMENT COMMITTEE INCLUDE A NUMBER OF BOARD TRUSTEES AS WELL AS OTHER COMMUNITY MEMBERS WITH FINANCIAL OR AUDIT EXPERIENCE. ASIDE FROM THE MEETING WITH FOUNDATION MANAGEMENT, THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS MEET JOINTLY WITH BOTH THE FOUNDATION'S AUDIT COMMITTEE, AND THE FOUNDATION'S FINANCE AND INVESTMENT COMMITTEE TO PRESENT THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REVIEW THE RESULTS OF ITS ANNUAL AUDIT. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS PRESENT THE CONSOLIDATED AUDIT REPORT AND REVIEW THE AUDIT RESULTS WITH THE FOUNDATION'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES AT ITS SECOND QUARTERLY MEETING. DUE TO THE TIMING ASSOCIATED WITH THE AFOREMENTIONED LEVELS OF REVIEW OVER THE AUDIT REPORT, AN AUTOMATIC EXTENSION FOR FILING THE FORM 990 (FROM THE INITIAL MAY 15 DEADLINE) IS TYPICALLY REQUIRED. AFTER THE FINAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS HAVE BEEN ISSUED, THE FORM 990 FOR ALL THREE COMPANIES ARE DRAFTED BY THE INDEPENDENT AUDIT FIRM AND ITS TAX MANAGER, WITH THE DIRECT ASSISTANCE OF THE FOUNDATION'S DIRECTOR OF FINANCE. THE FINAL DRAFT OF THE FORM 990 ARE REVIEWED BY THE FOUNDATION'S DIRECTOR OF FINANCE AND THEN SIGNED BY THE FOUNDATION'S PRESIDENT AND CEO. THE FORM 990'S (FOR THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION AND ITS SUPPORTING ORGANIZATIONS) ARE DISTRIBUTED TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES FOR THEIR REVIEW PRIOR TO FILING. FOR THE SAKE OF TRANSPARENCY AND TIME-RELEVANCE, IT IS THE GOAL OF THE FOUNDATION MANAGEMENT TO FILE THE FORM 990 AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. IF A FORMAL REVIEW AT A SCHEDULED QUARTERLY BOARD OF TRUSTEE MEETING IS FEASIBLE WITHIN THE TIME FRAME, THE FOUNDATION MANAGEMENT WILL DO SO, AND THE MEETING MINUTES WILL REFLECT THEIR FORMAL REVIEW. IF SUCH A FORMAL REVIEW WILL DELAY THE FILING UNNECESSARILY, FOUNDATION MANAGEMENT WILL DISTRIBUTE ELECTRONICALLY (OR IN HARD COPY) A COPY OF THE DRAFTED FORM 990'S FOR BOARD TRUSTEES' REVIEW. AN EXPLANATORY COVER LETTER WILL ACCOMPANY THE FORM 990'S AND REQUEST THAT TRUSTEES CONTACT THE DIRECTOR OF FINANCE WITH ANY QUESTIONS AND/OR TO SCHEDULE INDIVIDUAL REVIEWS AS DEEMED NECESSARY. EACH BOARD TRUSTEE IS REQUESTED TO DOCUMENT THEIR ACCEPTANCE OF THE FORM 990'S FORMALLY VIA A REPLY TO THE ELECTRONIC DISTRIBUTION, OR HARD COPY DISTRIBUTION. EVIDENCE OF BOARD OF TRUSTEE REVIEW AND APPROVAL WILL BE RETAINED IN THE FORM 990 FILES. UPON APPROVAL OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, THE FORM 990'S WILL BE FILED. ELECTRONIC FILE VERSIONS OF THE FORM 990'S ARE THEN MADE AVAILABLE ON THE FOUNDATION'S WEBSITE (WWW.STCLAIRFOUNDATION.ORG), UPLOADED TO GUIDESTAR.ORG (A RESOURCE RELATIVE TO NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS), AND ARE ALSO AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST OR IN PERSON.
FORM 990, PAGE 6, PART VI, LINE 12C THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION OF ST. CLAIR COUNTY HAS A BOARD-APPROVED CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY THAT IS CONSISTENT WITH SUCH POLICIES OF THE COUNCIL ON FOUNDATIONS AND THE COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS. ALL BOARD TRUSTEES INCLUDING FOUNDATION OFFICERS, COMMITTEE MEMBERS AND STAFF MEMBERS MUST REVIEW THE POLICY ANNUALLY AND SIGN A STATEMENT WHICH AFFIRMS THAT THEY: A.) HAVE RECEIVED A COPY OF THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY; B.) HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE POLICY AS WELL AS THE NEED TO COMPLY WITH THE POLICY (GIVEN THAT THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION MISSION IS CHARITABLE AND IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN ITS FEDERAL TAX EXEMPTION IT MUST ENGAGE PRIMARILY IN ACTIVITIES WHICH ACCOMPLISH ONE OR MORE OF ITS TAX-EXEMPT PURPOSES). C.) HAVE LISTED ALL AREAS OF POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST THAT EXIST AS OF THE DATE THEY ARE COMPLETING THE DISCLOSURE FORM, INCLUDING SERVICE ON OTHER NON-PROFIT BOARDS, FINANCIAL INTERESTS, AND FAMILY OR BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS; AND D.) HAVE AGREED TO DISCLOSE OTHERS AS THEY ARISE THROUGH THE YEAR, AND WHEN THE POTENTIAL FOR CONFLICT ARISES, AGREE TO VERBALLY DISCLOSE SUCH AREAS OF POTENTIAL CONFLICT AT ALL COMMITTEE/ BOARD MEETINGS. IN 2011, THE FOUNDATION ESTABLISHED ADDITIONAL CONFLICE OF INTEREST PLICY AND DISCLOSURE CRITERIA FOR THE POSITION OF BOARD CHAIRMAN. THIS CRITERIA IS AN APPENDIX TO THE EXISTING POLICY. FOUNDATION MANAGEMENT REVIEWS THESE CONFLICT OF INTEREST DISCLOSURES UPON RECEIPT, SUMMARIZES FOR THE BOARD AND INCLUDES IN BOARD BOOKS. THE DISCLOSURE FORMS ARE MAINTAINED ON FILE. PRIOR TO CONSIDERATION OF ANY MOTION FOR ACTION ON ITEMS OF BUSINESS DURING MEETINGS, COMMITTEE MEMBERS AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES ARE ASKED IF POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST EXIST. UPON DISCLOSURE OF A POTENTIAL CONFLICT, THE COMMITTEE AND BOARD MUST DETERMINE IF THE POTENTIAL CONFLICT IS DEEMED MATERIAL OR IMMATERIAL. FOR TYPICAL DISCLOSURES INVOLVING A COMMITTEE MEMBER'S OR BOARD TRUSTEE'S SERVICE WITH A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION BEING CONSIDERED FOR A GRANT, WHILE THE COMMITTEE MEMBER OR BOARD TRUSTEE MAY STAY AND PARTICIPATE IN DISCUSSION, THEY ABSTAIN FROM ANY VOTE. FOR ANY POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST THAT IS DEEMED MATERIAL, AS OUTLINED IN THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION'S CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY, THE COMMITTEE MEMBER OR BOARD TRUSTEE IS ASKED TO LEAVE THE MEETING WHILE THE ITEM OF BUSINESS IS DISCUSSED AND VOTED UPON.
